Darwin
This oil sketch on paper of a landscape including Fort Point, Port Darwin, illustrates the main camp of the Northern Territory Survey Expedition (1868-1870). This work is naive in comparison to other works painted by the same artist from this group. Hoare has composed this scene from an offshore vantage point, perhaps from a boat. The main focus of the work is a large, tree covered plateau, which is very close to the shoreline. This area is crowned with what is most likely an english flag attached to a tall pole. To the left, sheltered by the land mass is a camp of approximately a dozen white tents, pitched in front of a few, more permanent timber structures. To the far right, on a narrow beach at the bottom of the plateau and possibly included to represent scale, are tiny figures and horses. They appear to be preparing to load or unload a vessel by the jetty. To the left, the artist has included a figure driving a horse and cart on the beach.
Darwin
Planting first pole at Port Darwin of the Overland Telegraph Line on September 15th, 1870. The finished telegraph line was constructed from 36,000 posts. The first pole was planted in the Top End with great ceremony and all went well until the December-January monsoon season hit. Therefore the northern section was not finished until eight months after the deadline of 1 January, 1872. In 1866 it took four to five months to get a reply to a letter from England (there and back). After the installation of the Overland Telegraph Line it only took two days to get a message from Adelaide to London.
